It is hard to get in the habit of forcing yourself to find three things on a regular basis that you are grateful for.

A thankful outlook smoothes the rough edges off life.

I've been blessed, acne never knocked on my door. I think I look pretty darn good.

I think our job as parents is to give our kids roots to grow and wings to fly.

When my mother passed away I was 20.

I want my kids to be curious, to be interested in a lot of things, to be confident, and to feel they belong in any number of situations.

So many self-help ideas are like meringue - you take a big bite, and there's nothing there.
